NBR'S CUR...
Announcement: Every week, spotlight members thank the Board Directors who help run NBR. Funny thing---no one knows who they are! Take a moment to check out the newly published NBR Board of Directors Chapter so you can thank these people individually!
Comment Topic: The devil is in the details. Too little detail and your character wanders aimlessly through the narration equivalent to an empty stage. Too much detail and your reader will skip and skim. Many times, it's about striking the perfect balance. Name three things you would have liked the writer to be more descriptive about.
Comment Tip: Don'tforget to praise the quality of the Authors' work if need be. It's important for them to know what they are doing well.

Author's Note: Hello there!
I'm shaking in my boots! Lordy, I hope I survive this...
This little doozy is a Fantasy/Adventure story based on an idea I had ages ago (I'm talkin' 8th Grade, folks) and is my first foray onto 抖阴社区. While not the most stunningly original tale ever told, I wanted to have some fun and improve my overall writing skills, so here we are! I will do my utmost to answer all of your comments, so if I become mysteriously absent assume my internet has gone kablooie.
I want to thank you all in advance for your time and (doubtlessly) invaluable critiques. I am half agony, half hope...
Q 1): What was the most interesting element of this chapter? I tried to write an opening that will tempt readers onto the next scene without feeling too rushed. I'd love to know if there was anything that hooked your interest or could be improved in that regard.
Q 2): Was this chapter too confusing? The first and last parts take place in a different POV, and I tried to give enough info to move the plot along without revealing everything at once. The book takes place from a few POVs, and I've tried to create a distinctive voice for each.
